1) Rarity of the Comic Books

There are exceptions to every rule: some rather common comic books from the 1970s, such as Incredible Hulk #181 or Amazing Spider-Man #129, are still expensive because so many people collect that series, or (in the case of Wolverine) want the first appearance of the character.

There are also some very rare comics that not many people are interested in collecting. Some issues from the 1940s and 1950s almost never turn up for sale, but nobody is really looking for them, and they don't fetch anything like what their scarcity should demand for them.

In most cases though, the rarest comics will be the most expensive, and net you the most cash when you choose to sell yours.
